Chicago

Love the shopping on Michigan Ave!!!








Dinner at Carmine's with our friends Lindsey and Marshal Lunt.







Great view of the city!!

My university!! Loyola is not very common so I was pretty pumped to see the university with my maiden name.






It was fun to see Wrigley Field.










Rough game for the cubs!!












We absolutely loved the windy city!! Such a cool place.

The Ultimate Head Bob

Fun last days of summer

The little man is growing up.









The lower lip is his new favorite expression










Check out my sweet new ride.

Jaxon has fallen asleep in his Bumbo twice. He will fall asleep any where if he is tired.













I can't believe summer is over. We had so much fun swimming this year. Jaxon absolutely loves the water and his floaty. He could kick and splash for hours.

My First Tooth

He loves his Bumbo and anything he can put in his mouth.













The other day I found Jaxon completely sideways in his swing and his foot in his mouth.
I ran and grabbed my camera, but by the time I had returned he had taken his foot out,
but here he is sideways.













After months of thinking he was teething his first tooth finally came through.













He loves to play peek-a-boo in his crib.

Spudman 2008

Cole raced in the Spudman Triathlon today in Burley, Idaho. He drove up last night with Bryon Prince and the race was this morning (7-26). It was an olympic size triathlon which is a mile swim, 25 (40k) mile bike and 6.2 (10k) mile run. As you can see from the first pic, the swim is down the Snake River so there is a little bit of a current to swim with which Cole was grateful for. Unfortunately someone drown during the race today.



Coming in to T2-bike to run transition. Hot bod! Ow Ow. :-)





Thanks for taking care of my husband, Bry! It was so nice of you to go with him. You are the best!





Finished in 2 hours, 40 minutes. Which was awesome especially since this was his first triathlon. He did not train much...and he never ran 6 miles. He said his right hamstring and quad started to tighten up pretty bad the last mile and a half or so. Good work Cole!!!!

The Crush

For the past seven years, our friends have been playing softball together under the alias "The Crush". Many good times have been had on the softball diamond. It has been particularly enjoyable to watch the ex-con looking men and shemen of the other teams as we play. Classic! Best Utah has to offer. :-)


Jaxon has become our #1 fan. He wears his jersey to every game.







Cole has also been playing in a league with some buddies for the past 4 years or so. Grandma and Grandpa Nakker come and watch once in a while. Jaxon loves to hang out with them.

The Crush...continued.

Jaxon likes hanging out and watching his uncles (Jeremy up top and Brett below) play ball too!
